There are few things in this world better than chocolate and peanut butter. Chocolate, peanut butter and pretzels might just be one of them. Hailing from the Northeast, I grew up thinking (correctly) that Ben & Jerry’s was just about the best ice cream in the world. Especially when it comes to kooky flavor combinations,…
Chocolate Cake with Peanut Butter Buttercream Frosting
Is there anything better than chocolate and peanut butter? I highly doubt it. I was curious about the genius who created the most iconic chocolate peanut butter combo, the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. (Genius might be an understatement.) According to Wikipedia, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups were created in 1923 by H. B. Reese, a former…
Honey Nut Cookies

Cooking for Kaiser {Peanut Butter Dog Treats}
